Oh My: Palin to Endorse Trump in Iowa Today?
Townhall ^ | January 19, 2016 | Guy Benson

Posted on 01/19/2016 7:25:30 AM PST by Hojczyk

nteresting. But so what if there's a private jet bound from Anchorage to Iowa? That could be a coincidence. Or...uh, maybe not:

Oh my. The jet is headed to Ames, then hopping over to Tulsa? Exactly mirroring Trump's campaign itinerary? Dude. This might actually be happening. And what a splash it would make less than two weeks before Iowa.

Should Palin's endorsement both come to fruition (there have been clues along the way), and push Trump over the top, emotionalist nationalistic populism will have officially supplanted principled, policy-driven, limited-government conservatism as the currently dominant strain within the American right-wing. I'll leave you with this, because why not at this point?

Sorry, but the Left is supporting Trump to attack whom they fear most: Cruz.

Chuckie Schumer did not come out in support of Cruz. He came out in support of Trump. The Leftist Media is also carrying water for Trump on the birther rants.

We have elected so-called “men of principle” for a few years. Unfortunately they walk away from their “convictions” after a few years of being wined and dined in Washington. Palin is not corruptible, Trump is not corruptible. Cruz has taken millions. Just simple facts that people believe.

I don't believe the announcement will be Sarah as VP, not at all. If she is there perhaps she will announce Carly Fiorina as Trumps VP........

Sarah don't need to go through that agony again, but Trump would pick Carly perhaps to put the final nail in Hellary. Carly does have that killer instinct as does Trump.

So far, Trump has had his finger on the pulse of this country and his instincts have been spot on. I trust him on any decision as to SP.

It may help Trump in Iowa but definitely hurt him should he become the nominee for the general election. Just when Tingles and the MSM were warming up to him, Trump is reminding them that his role is to destroy conservatism from within.

Disappointed if this is the case. Sara should know better.

She won’t be asked, she wouldn’t accept. But I fully expect her to be a cabinet member overseeing the dealienization of America hopefully.

No, I'm afraid not. Palin is yesterday's news, plus she'll provide the screaming left-loonies with a target they can hit. Right now Trump is almost untouchable and almost any other running mate else is a much better choice.

Yah but I''m pretty sure Trump would consider an attack on palin as an attack on himself and take appropriate steps to mitigate it.

It would be totally in character for Trump to announce a female vp. He's used to and comfortable with having women in important positions in his companies.

Sarah P does know better. I trust her more than I trust myself.

Palin was caged up by McCain and prevented from campaigning to win. She admires Trump for his balls and aggressive style. Her endorsement could give Trump the extra 5% boost he may need to win Iowa.

You usually don't pick a VP until you have the nomination.

Another idiot trying to shame everyone else into voting for their candidate. Do you NOT see the irony in your attempts?

You want to talk about liberty and freedom but by God, if some person wants to vote for the candidate you are not supporting, then lets roll out every Saul Alinsky tactic against them.

A "conservative" statist is the same a liberal statist.

Makes sense, he can control women. He would have a very hard time EVER taking advice from Ted Cruz, since he thinks himself as the smartest man alive, he says so.

Since Sarah backed Haley, it would not surprise me at all that she will endorse Carly.......do I like it? H... NO.

Sarah I hope does not put herself through all that agony again. She has a good thing going on her own right now, and good for her.

"emotionalist [pissed off at government] nationalistic populism will have officially supplanted [un]principled, policy [crony]-driven, [un]limited-government conservatism"

Now it's the truth.

So then Trump is not going to announce Ssrah as his VP either? is that right?

Then why all the blathering and hoopla over "perhaps" it is Sarah to be there today? hmmmm. premature?

I would not be surprise at all if Trump did pick Carly.

Fact is Ted wishes he could get the Palin backing. Palin will be a great Secy of Energy.
We will build the Keystone XL pipeline and we will be energy independent.
No longer will America be protecting Saudi Oil while our soldiers die, and they charge us $100 per barrel. We are going to have all kind of clean energy, and our Troops won’t be hired mercenaries for the Oil Cartel.
